Comments Thread For: Ye Joon Kim: Naoya Inoue is human, he can be beaten
Collapse

There hasn't been many standout Mexican boxers at 118-122 weight classes for a decade or so with exceptions like Nery or Navarrete (who is at 130 currently), quite less a HOF caliber fighter like let's say Larios, Vazquez or R. Marquez. (Also Barrera and Morales)
I mean there is some promising upcomers now in comparison to the 2015's, but difficult to say how much they achieve and doubt they be fighting Inoue considering they are just starting out and Naoya is already turning 32. Doubt a fighter like Picasso who is willing to get caught to land something of substance can pull it off.Last edited by Malvado; 01-21-2025, 07:17 PM.Comment

He's not talking **** through he's ass he's actually very cordial and respectful. A very mild mannered young man who deserves a fair shake. Even if he doesn't win, I expect a good fight from him.Comment

Crimson, I'm F'ing around. I was at Kaiser today (I got walking pneumonia) and I was bored and thought it'd be funny to post something controversial.
If there's 1 thing I've learned in boxing is there are tough MFs of all colors and p.ssies too. Ionue is a great little fighter. Doesn't mean I'm going for him over and American or Mexican but he's a great fighter.Comment

Hope you feel better. My whole family is down with some respiratory bug and it sucks. I could barely train at all the last few days.

I find when people say things like that, that they never actually can name a specific fighter who they think will win, so I'll often challenge them to name the elite fighter who's supposed to beat whomever it is. I do the same if it's people talking smack about Crawford, Usyk, etc. Canelo, of course, has put himself into a bad spot because he won't fight Benavidez. I thought he'd have enough to win that fight years ago, and if he hadn't run into Bivol, I think he might have taken the challenge on. But I want to know who the Boogeyman is supposed to be, especially because if they're knowledgeable, we get to discuss the technical details of how the fight might go, and I love that.Comment

To be fair, I imagine that most if not all of these guys that fight him watch a bunch of tape, see some things they think they can expose, have a game plan, and maybe think they will win.Yes, he is human and one day he will probably get beaten if he keeps challenging himself and climbing weight divisions - just not now.
By the way, I love it how on the forum we have experts who know what to do and how to do it to defeat Inoue but in real life world champions he is fighting are dumbfounded and overwhelmed once they are in the ring with him.
I imagine the reality when you get in with him is that you simply cannot execute that plan because of his timing and angles.

Typical casual, not understanding that Inoue was scheduled to fight his WBO/IBF mandatory, Ring ranked #3, who first delayed the fight by taking an unnecessary interim fight, then delayed it again getting injured in camp, then pulled out last second, forcing Inoue's promoter to find a backup opponent short notice. If you don't understand the difference between that, and just going straight for the subpar opponent, YDKSAB.Comment
